Grateful
In NASCAR
I was thrilled to get a phone call from my oldest grandson today. He has been working as a tire guy for a race team for the past year. They race late model stock cars. His dream has always been to work in NASCAR. He has met a lot of people during this past year. […]
Time With Sons
My older son will be travelling back home tomorrow morning, so we got together for a family dinner tonight. We went to one of my favorite Mexican restaurants. My sister, and my younger son and his wife came also with the baby. They have been getting very adventurous taking her out. They even went to […]
It was such good news to hear that my friend’s mom was discharged from the hospital today. In one of the messages, my friend mentioned that she needed to get a new toilet seat for her mom. I remembered that I had kept the bedside commode that we purchased for my mom. It was all […]
Perfect Timing
After Mass this morning, I stopped by my son’s house. I thought I would visit for just a bit, then go about my day. However, when I arrived, my granddaughter was awake and aware. She is 2 months old now. My son was holding her and every now and then she would smile, which is […]
Supportive Group
My friend spent the day in the hospital with her mother as they waited for her to have a pacemaker implanted. It was a long day with a long wait and my friend kept me and our friend’s group updated. There were a lot of prayers by everyone all during the day. Her mom had […]
Spiritual Encounters
Yesterday I heard from a friend who took her mom to the hospital. She had been feeling bad for a few weeks, but refused to get medical help. Finally she agreed. They found that her 91 year old heart was beating very erratically and the surgeons will be implanting a pacemaker tomorrow. When she is […]
Draining the Sprinkler System
It has been a pretty warm Fall so far, but the weather is changing the next couple of days. When I was at my friend’s house today, the gentleman who had knee surgery was concerned about the water in the sprinkler system. He said it should be turned off and drained. He really wanted to […]
God Took Care of It
A couple of months ago, a friend of mine told me that her teenaged grandson had moved in with her. It was very unexpected. She was happy he was there and that he felt comfortable and safe with her. It has been quite some time since she had a teenager living in her home and […]
Prayer for the Deceased
A friend and I went to the cemetery this morning. The group of men from Knights of Columbus gather there on the 2nd Saturday of the month to pray the rosary for all those buried there. We joined in. It was a beautiful day and so peaceful praying with everyone. Then my friend and I […]
New Carpet
I was elated that today the carpet in my basement was replaced. As they were tearing it out, I could see how deep the dog accident stains had penetrated and how far they spread. It felt so clean and fresh to get the 26 year old carpet out and get a new one in. I […]
